Just check out the phenomenal amount of sculpting that went into this Captain America cake: the contours of the face, the smooth, symmetrical curves of the shield, the scales of the armor, and the unnervingly-distracting bulge of that codpiece.

No, seriously… look at that thing. (The unnerving bulge, I mean.) I only wish that I could stop looking at it. Once you notice it, you can’t un-notice it.

I just can’t help but wonder about the deliberate, special care that was taken by the cake artisan to make sure that we all know that this Captain America cake is anatomically correct. (Or is at least anatomically… anatomical.)

* And by “pour”, I mean the photos were pretty much available last week, but I’ll post them when I damn well ready, thankyouverymuch.

There’s a shortage of perfect breasts in this world. T’would be a pity to damage yours.

But then I think, “Well, if you’re the sort of person whose judgment sees fit to plaster a huge Superman logo across your chest–accented by a metal stud sticking out of your clavicle–then I would naturally perceive your breasts and other features as 37% less attractive, anyway. Scar away!”

Via BMEzine, who would never judge you for your phenomenally poor* choices in body scarification.

* No, seriously. Awful.

And by “goodness”, I mean fugging fugg-tacular cake artistry in the form of this Lord of the Rings Gollum cake by Brian Stevens of Crazy Cakes.

Talent scouts from the TLC network saw Brian’s work at the show and asked him to appear on an upcoming episode of “Ultimate Cake Off,” one of their 17 cake-themed shows.

Which means that we can fairly assume that the scouts from TLC have at least 1/6th of my impeccably-good taste.

Thanks to Kyla for the tip.

“We knew that we didn’t want standard paper invites. We wanted something for people to keep and remember. We are geeks. We love video games. Why not have a video game invite?”

The thing is, the invited guests can’t see the wedding details until they win the game.

Which, I don’t know… doesn’t sound so awful. Poor hand-eye coordination seems like a pretty righteous excuse for not having to buy a wedding gift. (P.S. I hate buying wedding gifts.)

But then Shelby came along in this Teen Wolf dog costume, and I broke one of my personal rules for the first time since I paid to see a Michael Bay movie.

Little. Skinny. Asian. Kids.

Not only do these Airbender costumes not feature Asians, nor kids, their degree of non-skinniness falls squarely within the domain of “Did someone mention little kids? ‘Cause I could totally eat right now.”

If your eyes have done something to really piss you off lately*, you can make them pay the price with more images of ridiculous forthcoming Star Wars Transformers over at Transformer World 2005.

* No, seriously, though. If you and your eyes are currently on good terms, I do not recommend following that link.

I just can’t tell if the cake artisan has captured this young Na’vi in a state of “oh, shit!” right before his tree-home is demolished by the Evil Human Forces, or if the little fella has just discovered the marvels of sucking on his own nerve endings.

I made this as part of an animation challenge on bricksinmotion.com. The goal was to make the coolest lightsaber duel possible. The lightsaber and blaster effects were done in photoshop.

Come for the hot Star Wars-y action, stay for the remarkable smoothness of the stop-motion animation, the professional camera movements, and the high-quality, tightly-integrated sound effects.

Or, you can make like GWS and giggle, point, and say, “Mmmm, pretty.”

Mmmm, pretty.
